Conversion of the filename is "Where have you been?"

Collecting all the "places we've been" by named place, integer given to that place, and the lat/long solution

Do the number of pawns correspond to the puzzle number?

do these somehow correspond to chess move notation?

Note the pawns on the left hand side of each color, maybe?

Maybe we add or subtract from 0 to get the numbers after the decimal?

place the 3 black pawns and 7 white pawns to add to the appropriate numbers?

My guess would be black/white corresponds to lat/long? (or vice versa)

Something to think about: chess notation is 1-8 and a-f., with a1 on the bottom left and h8 on the upper right.

If we use chess notation, could that give us a lat/long using the special instructions from the last puzzle?

or maybe position the white rooks and black rooks in their spots to remove those numbers from the board?

Like scrabble with the piece values? e.g. white rooks are -14 and 10?
